Sharing his own, @triplejjjayyy mentioned that he is currently a medical student at Afe Babalola University.

Before he secured admission to study at Afe Babalola University, he mentioned that he had written JAMB multiple times.

In his first UTME, he got a total of 284, but the University of Lagos denied him admission.

He wrote the JAMB exam again and, this time around, his score was very high, and he met the cut-off mark for the course he initially applied for at the University of Lagos.

"Currently a medical student at Afe Babalola University."

Several individuals praised his brilliance in the comment section of the post he shared online.

Legit.ng spoke with a student of Afe Babalola University who got admitted into the school after he was denied admission by the University of Lagos (UNILAG).

He had tried to study his dream course at UNILAG but couldn't get in. He later sat for another examination and also applied to another school, which eventually admitted him.

He introduced himself in the exclusive chat.

"I am John Ekemini-Abasi Julius, currently studying Medicine and Surgery at Afe Babalola University, Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State."

John spoke about his experience during his first JAMB attempt for admission into the University of Lagos (UNILAG).

"Honestly, it was an eye-opening one. I was just a young guy in his final days of secondary school stepping into the terrain of UTME. I thought I had it all together and would scale through like I did in the mock exam, but JAMB had other plans."

"It really opened my eyes to a lot of lapses, which I am grateful for."

"What changed is the fact that I actually calmed down this time and actively learnt from my mistakes and made a conscious effort not to repeat them."

"I made myself more teachable to people who had excelled in the UTME and became more of a team player through the online tutorials I joined – Fes Prime Academy and Ajaks Tutorial. Plus, God definitely helped me out."

Finally, he advised students who faced admission rejection from their desired institution.

"Always try to look at the glass as half-full rather than half-empty. A rejection gives you a chance to reflect and come back way stronger."

"Yes, I agree there were times I felt my life was behind. There were times I wished things could have been different and I could relate to that university-boy lifestyle. But I didn't let that one rejection stop me from trying."

"You can and will definitely do it, no matter how long it takes. One no doesn't mean that there aren't multiple yesses out there."
